Babe,

Mahal na mahal kita! By the time you're reading this letter I'm on my way home to my family. I lied to you babe when I said I'm fine the last time we went to town. I got news that papa is sick and I know it's my fault because I ran away. I feel so guilty because of me he became depress, I feel bad because I became selfish and left him when he badly needed my help to save the business. I'm happy in a way because I met and fell in love with you Mr. Sungit and not once pinagsisihan ko yon. Babe I'm really really sorry for running away and hurting you. I'm sorry kung nag lihim ako sa yo. How can I tell you that I need to go when you've started talking about me meeting your family, how will I break the news to you that I can't stay and be with you. The moment I get to Manila, I'll be meeting my future husband. I just pray that sana kagaya mo siya pero alam kong nag iisa ka lang. Basta ang lagi mong tatandaan mahal na mahal kita and sana mapatawad mo ako sa kasalanan kong ito. Please don't hate me for this. I pray that someday you'll find someone na mamahalin ka higit pa sa pagmamahal ko. Ingat ka palagi and I'll always be thinking of you. I love you...

"Oh babe" ang tanging salitang nasabi ni gerald pagkabasa sa sulat ni Kim. Pagtingin sa relo he realized he only has half an hour to prepare if he wants to catch the next trip to town so takbo siya sa cottage niya to get money and he was so thankful kasi may 1 bar sa signal ng phone niya. He texted yaya na nagpapasundo sa town sa driver na si Lando and didiretso sila sa manila ASAP. Nagulat si yaya Helen pagkabasa ng text ni Gerald " Pedring! si Gerald nagpapasundo sa bayan at uuwi na raw kami sa manila ngayon na. Asan si Lando? Lando! tapos dali daling nagligppit ng gamit si yaya Helen. kung may maiwan tsaka na lang balikan.

Earlier:

5 am gumising si Kim at dahan dahang bumangon at inayos ang mga gamit, iniiwasang gumawa ng ingay at baka magising si Gerald ng "babe?", nagulat si Kim sa tawag ni Gerald. "tulog ka pa mag toilet lang ako" sabi na lang niya. "Dalian mo ha, wala akong akap" then pikit uli si gerald. Bago mag 6am naayos na niya gamit niya, konti lang ang dala niya kasi ang iba nasa sampayan pa, she was crying while writing the letter then she left it on top of her pillow. She kissed him on the lips then whisphered "I Love You" then she walked away from the one she loves and she fought the urge to look back because she knows when she looks back she won't be able to leave him.

Sa daungan naman:

Gerald: Manong naisakay nyo ba si Kim kanina?

Bankero: oo iho ang aga nga niya e, nagulat nga ako bakit di ka kasama, tulog ka pa raw e.

All throughout the journey tahimik lang si gerald, as usual walang masagap na signal ang mobile. Sa isip niya ilang oras na ang head start ni Kim sa kanya. Pagdating sa bayan andon na ang driver at si yaya nag aantay. Nagulat sila walang dala si gerald na gamit, binilin na lang kay Pedring na puntahan ang cottage at linisin pati na rin yung katabing cottage at kung may gamit na naiwan dalhin sa mansion.

Gerald: Hello dad! I'm coming home
